Provence Flea Market Shopping Trip 2010 Day 1

Well, we made it to Provence! Wait a minute, 1,2,3,4,5 plus Jill, our guide and Val taking the picture. We're missing 5 people! OK we didn't all make it to Provence safe and sound. Michele and her group who went to Paris a couple of days early got stuck at the Orly Airport in the midst of a massive French strike. All the flights were canceled, all the trains were canceled and they were having problems getting fuel. Sooooo....last time I heard from her she was negotiating with a Man from Cameroon with a van, to pay $2000 to drive the 5 ladies 8 hours from Paris to Provence......as of this writing....have not heard from them. ...Should I be worried?
.
 Oh well...life...and our tour goes on!  We checked into our cute little hotel and headed to the streets for a quick walking tour of Aix en Provence.What a darling city ! We saw lots of cute little shops....


 Fabulous buildings & architechture.....
 Lots of gorgeous fountains....

 As the sun sets, we are already falling in Love....

Stay tuned.....
